Former Adelaide champion Mark Bickley says Adelaide's list needs an overhaul in order to be serious contenders next year.
Speaking on Adelaide radio station, FiveAA, Bickley named six players he thinks should go in the off-seasonย to help regenerate the Crows' list.
The Adelaide premiership player says the Crowsย should have been more active in last year's trade period after the departure of Patrick Dangerfield and has called on the club to make some big calls.
Bickley believes Scott Thompson, Jarryd Lyons, Luke Brown, Ricky Henderson, David McKay and Richard Douglas should all be moved on by the club.
Scott Thompson โ โIf heโs going to be there, heโs not going to be your mainstay in the midfield,โ Bickley said of the veteran.
Jarryd Lyons โ โI think heโs too similar to too many other players within the team.โ
David Mackay โ โHas had seven years at the footy club โฆ never really, I donโt think, fulfilled the potential he showed.โ
Luke Brown โ โThis is harshโฆ whilst heโs a great shutdown player, I feel as if there needs to be more rebound from Adelaide off their back half.โ
Ricky Henderson โ โI think will be on his way.โ
Richard Douglas โ โThis is hard for me to sayโฆ if youโre going to look at getting good players in, youโve got to actually give something up.โ
โLast year they did a tweak โฆ I think they have to go a little bit harder this year,โ Bickley said.
โThereโs half a dozen players that will give you a new look within your team."
I think brown should stay, would love to see douglas and thompson stay but think its time for them to move on and the other 3 need a fresh start (lyons already out the door) think gregg and ottens might also be in the chopping block
They need to draft in some readymades like Dal Santo, Furrito, Maric and Wells. Get it done !
